Inappropriate?If you change the name of the photo and then tab out of the field, does the name change in the list of photos in the middle?
Are you sure the photo is selected before you start entering information? Make sure you click on the photo and then enter the information about it. (Though, if the photo is not selected, you shouldn't be able to enter any information at all.) -
Inappropriate?1. Yes it does.
2. Yes the photo is selected when entering the info.
Let me provide some more info, It used to all work fine. Then firstly the tags stopped transferring, about a month later the descriptions stopped too, and then today the title didn't go either. So now no information transfers to flickr.
The description and tags just appear blank, and the title reverts to whatever the file name is for the image
Thanks for the quick reply,

Inappropriate?Quit Photonic and move the following file to the desktop: ~/Library/Preferences/com.bssware.Photonic.plist
Now start up Photonic, sign in to Flickr again (and reset your preferences) and see if the problem goes away. If it does, we'll want a copy of that preferences file. -
Inappropriate?ok , give me 5 mins to do this
Thanks :) -
Inappropriate?Hi, That sorted the title and description, but not tags.
Just to be clear i am separating my tags with commas.
Do you want that .plist? -
Inappropriate?When you type them in, do you get a blue token around each tag after you press the comma key?
If not, try this for tags: tag <return> tag <return> tag <return> <return>
Click on a different image and then back and see if there are tokens around each tag now.
(If moving the plist solved the other issues, yes, please email it to support@bssware.com and include a link to this page.)</return></return></return></return> -
Inappropriate?Yes i get the token round each tag as i enter them.
Weird, It seems they may be two separate issues then? I can't remember the tags from photonic ever working well for me to be honest.
Thanks for the help again, despite these problems this is still the best flickr client on Mac OS, well done!

Inappropriate?PS.
email sent :) -
Inappropriate?Thanks for the praise. :)
On the tags, are you using 1.0.1? I use this almost every day myself and the tags work perfectly for me. How, exactly, are you adding tags? Can you give a specific example that fails to work as expected? -
Inappropriate?absolutely, latest version.
eg. baby, portrait, fight, bums, mono, colour, summer, window
comes through as; ] nothing
is this what you mean?
I also use Photonic every day, and before that i used FlickrUploadr for ages. Its a shame, cause i end up just leaving the tags out and entering them in the crappy flickr interface afterwards..

Inappropriate?I'm having this same problem, which has plagued me since day one. Sometimes tags are saved, sometimes they aren't, and sometimes only some of them are.
I read the above and deleted my preferences file. This appeared to work for my first couple test images with titles and no descriptions. I then tried one with a title, description, and tags, and the description wasn't saved. I tried again and the description was saved but not the tags. So this is pretty random, and doesn't appear to have been fixed by trashing the prefs file.
I'm using Photonic 1.0.1 on OS X 10.5.4. When entering tags in Photonic, the completion works, showing me a list of existing tags, and the tag highlights in blue once I've selected it (aside: how about supporting quoted tags with spaces the way Flickr does?)
I'd be happy to go through whatever steps you think might give you more info about the problems, as it's fairly maddening having to do all my tags manually every time, after paying for the application. Anything to get this working properly.
I’m frustrated
